Bug#429226: Debian xmonad packages



Hey,

I gave your packages a whirl since I'm an xmonad user and have just been
building in my home directory for the time being, and things seem to
work fairly well so far. I like how you've put in the thought to design
a package system so that users who want to customize xmonad (probably
most of them given the intended audience) don't have to abandon the
Debian packages.

One thing that seems vaguely sketchy to me is using ~/.xmonad/xmonad as
the default location for custom-built binaries. Dot directories are
intended for configuration, and it seems very weird to put binaries
there. I would prefer ~/bin/xmonad, personally. However, these are just
my personal thoughts.

Anyhow, I haven't done extensive testing but for the most part I like
what I see so far. :) Are you planning on packaging common xmonad
accessories like e.g. dzen2 and xmobar as well?

Cheers,
Christine
